sold the s
Just sold the car to someone taking it back to france and miss it already sad to see it go . Great great car and would recommend to anyone. Actually its a fantastic car.
things that annoyed me was high revs on motorway so found it thirsty and the only 2 seat thing. Other then that most reliable car I ever owned.
was thinking off a audi tt 225 post 2003 so dashpod problems all sorted.
anyone had one?

My dentist had a TT but sold it when it was about 4 years old as "it started to cost me too much". It was a nice little motor I thought, check on reliability. Audi get the interior right but often make numb cars
I don't think I'll ever sell my S.

Agree with the commuting aspect, they get long in the tooth for some as regular commuters so I feel your frustration with it. Installing a better Hifi in the car helps comfort, maybe even heat the seats. I never got as far as that myself, but I must admit the comfort got on my nerves. They are better/much easier to live with as short range commuters/weekenders. I think overall its a nicer place to sit than say, an MX5 for commuting.
You never know, the spell has been cast and you could just return.....
TT's are a little numb, tuneable though on that Golf platform and have quite a bit of poke. Prices coming down but many 100k milers are well past half their age. Superb interior but suffers the worst scuttle shake i've ever experienced in a rag top version. Go for the Coupe if you're after a TT.

Only ever been in a facelift TT but if back seats are a consideration then best to pretend they aren't there.
Feels quicker in a straight line than the S2000 because of the turbo shove. I struggle to keep up with my friends round roundabouts.
Cabin feels very special and the seating position is brilliant. Up there with a Z4.
Have you considered a Z4? Seems a good half way house of the TT comfort, economy and image but with a modicum of being a drivers car still.

Any one who gets an S2000 over 30mpg (and that's the premium go juice as well) deserves their feet amputating.

i know when japfest comes i am going to feel the pain
i use to listen to music loud the loudness of the car did not bother me it just felt like i had to have another gear to change into.
also i am looking at getting a coupe so i got 4 seats i know its 2+2 but they are still there.
i was dissapointed that the car was up for so long aswell i know it was a cat d but was at least 1500 under value with only 49k all mot.s and fsh.
all i been reading lately is problems with the odd s on here and i am thinking mines pretty much perfect bare some age related odd marks .
kept getting offered 3000 cars and expecting a straight swap or silly offers like 2000 3000. the best was 4200 and ended with more then i was expecting as i was hopeing for 4500 so that was a bonus.

Crikey. An s is a luxury barge in comparison to some 2 seaters. And thirsty? Try a car with a big lump for real thirsty. The s is frugal

going to be around 55 mph anythink where at 70 you doing over 4k its going to be thirstier then a turbo at 2.5 - 3k doing 70
but i do understand the s2000 is a little racing car in my oppinion and for being a high revver is going to be a little thirsty
